On Feb. 21, President Trump suggested arming adept teachers to provide safety for our children. I have a better idea: remove the guards for the House of Representatives and the Senate and arm the adept representatives and senators.

Why not remove the president's secret service detail. Perhaps arm him and his staff. Surely one among them would be adept with a firearm. Send the money saved on all those guards to the schools for police protection.
